The strongman's wife who traveled through time and space and became a young general

"If you're not lying, judging by this action, you did let him go." Lin Qiu'er put one hand on her waist and scratched her chin with the other hand, then turned to ask Gu Anqing, "What do you think, Mr. Gu?"

Gu Anqing didn't want to believe it in his heart, but judging from the servant's actions just now, he had indeed let something go.

This discovery made him feel complicated. Could it be that even Uncle Zhong, who had followed Grandpa for decades, had betrayed him? His expression gradually became gloomy, and his hand holding the cane tightened.

Changqing's expression kept changing, and a hint of panic flashed in his eyes.

Lin Qiuer looked at their reactions and sighed inwardly. No matter how she looked at their expressions, it seemed like they were overthinking.

"Things have not been confirmed yet. Everything is still unknown. Besides, even if it is related to that young lady, it cannot be said that it was definitely done by your loyal butler."

As soon as the words fell, Gu Anqing and Chang Qing's faces relaxed and they breathed a sigh of relief inaudibly.

They are just being too stubborn and taking things for granted.

During this period of time, the series of events that happened made them feel very stressed, so when they heard that Uncle Zhong's young wife was related to the matter of the millipede, the more they thought about it, the more scared they became.

"Miss Qiu'er is absolutely right. Let's confirm this matter with Uncle Zhong first before talking about other things." Gu Anqing made a decision after weighing it for a moment.

Lin Qiuer nodded. This was all she could do for now. After thinking for a while, she reminded him again.

"We can first ask someone to check the background of this young lady, such as what she usually does and who she comes into contact with."

Upon hearing this, Gu Anqing glanced at Chang Qing. Their long-standing tacit understanding made Chang Qing immediately understand what he meant, and he quickly walked out the door to make arrangements.

"Come here, keep an eye on this servant." Gu Anqing swept his sharp eyes over the servants present and called the guards to take the witness away and keep an eye on him.

Two guards came in and took all the servants away and locked them up.

This series of operations made Lin Qiuer sigh that the lives of servants were really worthless, like grass, and the master would not care about the life or death of a mere servant.

"Whether it's the housekeeper's young wife or a servant, Master Gu can handle it by himself. There's no need to involve me. I'm soft-hearted and can't bear to see people lose their lives." Lin Qiu'er looked at the back of the servant who was taken away, touched her stomach, and felt a little hungry.

"I'm hungry now after having breakfast. Mr. Gu, do you want to go back and have lunch by yourself or should we go together?"

Gu Anqing was worried about Grandpa, but also wanted to have lunch with Lin Qiu'er. After thinking for a while, he said, "After sending Grandpa to the new courtyard, I will have lunch with Miss Qiu'er."

Lin Qiu'er didn't care and nodded, "That's fine. Don't forget to ask someone to call Fourth Brother back."

The two men waited for Old Master Gu to wash and change into new clothes, and then followed the servants to take him to Gu Anqing's courtyard and settle him down.

Gu Zhong was worried, so he stayed beside Old Master Gu and served him.

Lin Qiuer took out the Baihua Detoxification Pill from the bag and handed it to Gu Anqing reluctantly, and reminded him,

“Friendship is friendship, but Master Gu has to pay me for this Hundred Flowers Detoxification Pill.

I'll give you the two pills you took before.

This one won’t work, this is the Baihua Detoxification Pill, which will be used up if you use one, and it was given to me by the witch doctor for my personal protection.”

It is indeed valuable, but that does not prevent her from raising its value a few levels further.

Anyway, judging from their previous performance, the witch doctor's medical skills are extraordinary in their eyes.

Gu Anqing understood from Lin Qiuer's actions and expressions how precious the Hundred Flowers Detoxification Pill was that she had just taken out.

She had given away her own detoxification pills casually, but from the look of her reluctance to give this pill to her grandfather, it could be inferred that it was very precious.

Seeing Lin Qiu'er's painful expression, he couldn't help but chuckle, "Don't worry, Miss Qiu'er, I won't give you less money for the Hundred Flowers Detoxification Pills."

Lin Qiu'er still looked reluctant, but she was very satisfied in her heart: "This Mr. Gu is quite sensible."

Gu Anqing reached out and took the Baihua Detoxification Pills. In order to prevent Miss Lin Qiuer from changing her mind, he ordered the servants to bring warm water immediately, and then he quickly helped his grandfather take the pills.

He didn't want to give Lin Qiuer any chance to regret taking this precious pill.

"Ah... I took it." Lin Qiu'er made a look of deep regret, pouted her mouth slightly, looked a little unhappy, and said angrily,

"Hurry up and prepare something delicious for me. I'm so heartbroken. This is the medicine I got with great difficulty." While complaining, she walked out of the room and went to Gu Anqing's courtyard next door to have lunch.

"That was a close call." Gu Anqing wiped his forehead and found no sweat. It turned out to be just a false alarm.

He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and asked the kitchen to send the best dishes, and then asked the servants to call Brother Lin back to have lunch together.

They quietly enjoyed the delicious lunch. Lin Qiuer and her siblings and Gu Anqing were sitting at the table, sipping tea and enjoying the snacks and fruits brought by the servants.

At this time, Chang Qing ran in hurriedly, walked directly to Gu Anqing and whispered a few words.

After listening to this, Gu Anqing frowned slightly and said to Lin Qiuer, "Miss Qiuer, the servant who led Brother Nan Ye just came back to report that Brother Nan Ye had an argument with someone in the restaurant and even beat him up."

"How is this possible?" Lin Qiuer put down the teacup in her hand, unable to believe that this was something the cautious Lin Nanye could do.

Lin Nanyue also looked at Changqing in shock, picked her ears, and asked uncertainly: "No, you just said that my third brother got into a fight with someone? You're not lying, are you? My third brother rarely gets into a fight with others, unless he really can't stand it."

Chang Qing also agreed. After all, among Miss Lin's two brothers, the one who was away was the most stable. However, he still replied, "The one who was beaten seemed to be someone from the post station."

Lin Qiu'er's heart skipped a beat. Didn't she tell her third brother to keep a low profile? Why did he fight with the people at the post station?

“I’ll go and have a look.”

After Lin Qiu'er finished speaking, she immediately stood up and walked out of the house. Her steps were hurried, and she asked as she walked, "Where is the servant? Let him lead the way."

Gu Anqing stood up and planned to go with Lin Qiuer.

But he heard Lin Qiu'er outside the house say, "Mr. Gu, please don't come with me. I really can't handle it. I'll ask someone to come back and invite you."

Gu Anqing had no choice but to give up, but he ordered the leader of the guards: "Send a team of people to protect Miss Lin."

Outside the courtyard, Lin Qiuer met a servant who came to report.

When the servant saw Lin Qiu'er, he hurried over and said, "Miss Lin, go and persuade Master Lin quickly. He is about to beat someone to death."

"What's going on? Tell me in detail." Lin Qiu'er was anxious and hurried towards the gate of Gu's mansion.

The servant walked beside Lin Qiu'er, while Lin Nanyue stood on the other side of him.

"I took Master Lin to a restaurant near the post station to get information. Master Lin met an acquaintance while having lunch, and I heard Master Lin call him Brother Song.

Later, two more people came and sat at the same table with them to have lunch. The atmosphere was originally very good, but then another man and a woman came.

As soon as Master Lin saw the man, he ran up to him angrily and asked him what his relationship with the woman was.

After hearing the woman introduce herself as the man's fiancée, the man hesitated but nodded and said yes. Then Master Lin beat the man.

Lin Nanyue had been inseparable from Lin Nanye since childhood, and knew that he did not like to cause trouble, but she was puzzled, "How does Third Brother know people in the county town?"

"What was the name of the beaten man? Do you know?" Lin Qiu'er had a guess in her mind, but was not quite sure, so she asked the servants.

The servant nodded and replied repeatedly, "I know. I heard Master Lin yelled before he hit someone, 'Lian Tie, you bastard.'"
